As you may remember from last week, my insurance company denied my gynecologist’s request for the Mirena IUD. I got on the telephone and email and burned up some ears and eyes… and found out today that they have changed their denial… This means that I have been approved for the procedure. It just goes to show that you must take your own cause and fight for it! I went through the same thing when Blue Cross denied my gastric bypass procedure, twice. I had to fight for it as well. I am not sure yet as I have not spoken with the gyn’s office, but will post more details as they come. The NuvaRing appears to be doing great right now. I hope it continues with no problems until I am able to get the procedure done. I’m feeling much better, not quite so tired, drained and moody! I am looking forward to when life can be exactly like the sub title on the Mirena symbol… SIMPLE again!
